Do citrus fruits such as limes irritate your bladder?

Question

I was told that eating citrus irritates your bladder wall because it is so acidic. Does anyone know if this is true?

Marty Farky, when I read your replies to my questions, I laugh. Not because they are funny, but because of your failed attempt to hide your own guilt. It is quite obvious that you are guilty because you eat meat and so you feel slagging off on me is some how going to justify you eating meat as normal. People who eat the dead corpse of animal are not normal, they are sickos just like you. Also, you have been reported.

The level of ignorance here is beyond measure. You morons think you need to go to the doctor for anything. You people are so blind, it is not even funny.

Katie, at least I don't make post about putting little appetizer flags in floaters in the toilets and playing battleship.

Answer 1

that isn't true i don't think

Answer 2

Citrus fruit has a cleansing effect so if you are backed up it may irritate you while it cleanses your digestive system. Large quantities of citrus fruit are not recommended on a daily basis but you can use them once a month as part of a cleansing diet.

Answer 3

No, it may irritate you're stomach, anyhow your stomach is full of hydrochloric acid any way. By the time it has reached your bladder it would have be metabolised unto something else.

For me limes don't irritate me, trolls on the over hand..

Answer 4

I doubt it as the food has already gone through your stomach which is full of Hydrochloric acid at a fairly high concentration..

...unless the lime juice is entering your bladder from another route?

Answer 5

Excessive eating of citrus fruit can cause a build up of crystaline deposits which will certainly become a painful irritant.

Answer 6

acids are healthy for the bladder. bacteria loves it when we ingest sweet things like sodas. if you are having a reaction to citrus fruits, see your doctor about an allergy.

Answer 7

I use a lot of citrus fruits when i cook. Lemon with chicken and fish, orange with beef and limes with anything spicy. And I have no adverse reactions from it.

Ashley, do you report everyone who disagrees with you? Or has another opinion other than your own?

Yahoo Answers is now answering back on people who continually report people, i.e you.

Sorry to say sweetheart but by the looks of things, I don't think you have much impact!!!
